Tell Obama to stay in the kiddie pool where he belongs and leave swimming in the ocean to adults.

Please tell me this was a joke/accident. And why the HELL would the "VA" be concerned w/ some twisted enviro-agenda..? This is what we're PAYING for? Whomever posted that needs to be canned.

Really funny developments in the Lerner email scandal as Sharyl Atkisson asks all the same questions any administrator or EMPLOYEE would ask if their emails ( for two friggin' years ) just went poof.

IF that were the case, wouldn't there ALSO be an email trail of all the IT people involved attempting to even FIX the problem..!?!? Or did those get lost too? More blatant contempt for conservatives ( and increasingly Americans from ALL walks ) thinking they don't even have to put any thought into crafting their fables.

Guys, Nixon tried this and it didn't pan out real well. At this point we'll all safely assume they contain all the incriminating info we'd ever need and just move forward.

Here's one that pisses me off. We no longer have the capability to send our own astronauts into space, but NASA has the money to launch satellites to further the global warming hoax.

So true. Everything Sharyl Atkisson said in that interview is totally true. There is no way those emails went "poof" like that. First of all their would be copies on the email server and as the IT guy she talked to said it is on a RAID array. That means the server had probably 5-6 drives running a redundant backup. So even if one or two drives went down there would be no problems. All it would take to fix it is to "hot swap" the bad drives for new drives. The server would run slow for a time as the other drives copied the redundant data to the new drives. Eventually it would be like those drives never went down.

You would have to have a catastrophic failure of all the drives to go down for the emails to be lost off the server, but even then there would be an offsite backup to avoid a total data loss. That backup could be up and running on a new server within hours.

As Atkinsson's source pointed out, Congress needs to pull in the IT folks, swear them in and then grill them. During the grilling keep mentioning that they are under oath and that they could be facing some serious jail time in a fed pen. They would crack in no time flat.

Everyone that's ever used an employer's computer 'thought' they blew up their email. I have several times. They always turn up!

They're treating us like 4th graders…

I love it when they try to destroy the hard drive only to have me retrieve the data later(usually from the server). They think they are soooo smart, until I show up with the proof and wipe the smug look off their faces.

"They're treating us like 4th graders…"

Which is one reason so many in the IT field have come out and thrown down the BS card (even typically liberal companies like Microsoft).

Time for some Congresscritter to state that this was willful, criminal destruction of evidence and then make a referral for a criminal prosecution starting with former IRS Commission Steven Miller and expand it to the WH.

I am very happy to be here because this is a very good site that provides lots of information about the topics covered in depth. Im glad to see that people are actually writing about this issue in such a smart way, showing us all different sides to it. Please keep it up. I cant wait to read whats next.
